We started cutting out tomato - just does not agree with all of us and my daughter gets a painful rash around her mouth from it. We've been making Italian sausage with onions instead of tomato sauce, for example. I'm working on a crockpot tomato free baked bean dish - still thinking through that one for replacing the tomato.

Another thing I make is potatoes in the slow cooker. Dice potatoes into small cubes, throw in slow cooker with salt and some fat (we use certified casein-free ghee but olive oil would be fine). Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 8. Make a whole bag of potatoes and fry the leftovers in a pan for the next meal.

For a veggie dish, I bet you could make a good squash soup in the crockpot with onions and seasoning and vegetable broth. Blend with a hand blender when done and add coconut milk (if that is on your safe list).

Awesome resource, Mac! I will have to look through those recipes and try some out. DH bought me a crockpot for Chanukah to make life easier when shuttling the kids around prevents making dinner on time. I haven't been sure what to do with the crockpot, though.
